Piney woods expedition
Fordyce & Princeton (ex-CRI&P) SW1500 1504 trundles along the heavily wooded right-of-way leading to its one customer for today (and most days), the Georgia Pacific OSB plant just south of Fordyce, Arkansas, and only a mile or two ahead.
Although the crew is running out of time due to other commitments, they'll safely complete their trip down and back since it's not far. Luckily, they got out of Fordyce before the shadows completely consumed the scene at this, the only public crossing (overpass) between town and GP.
This appears to be a once-a-week thing, and apparently only on Thursdays, which was the reason I started off my week-long expedition the previous Sunday by heading due west instead of south into Arkansas.
